meeting between two worlds
bladder Piscis, better known as Mystic Almond is a very common symbol in art, especially in medieval Europe, where it appears often associated with Christ in bas of Gothic cathedrals. However, since it is a geometric figure made up of only two curves, and therefore a design simplicity and essentiality, provides the basis and structure artistic creations of many civilizations in the world, and not only: it is one of those backing tracks that underpin the complex architecture of the universe and anatomy of living things. In the human body, eyes, mouth, and almost every hole through which the interior of the body communicates with the outside world are structured on the basis of geometrically Bladder Piscis. Among the symbols of art, what is perhaps most affected the influence of the vesica pisces is the fish stylized as widely used in early Christian symbol of the Redeemer (well before the appearance of the first depictions of Jesus as a human figure), partly because the Greek word for fish, "stroke" was read by the faithful of the nascent religion as an anagram of "Iesous Theou Uyios Christos Soter" (Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior). Are almost universally the Mystic Almond also as a representation of the vulva, and then the Magna Mater (Great Mother). But what is the deep meaning conveyed by the vesica pisces? What links at an abstract level so its presence in the casing of the cosmos as its multiple uses iconography? To understand this it is necessary to analyze the source graphic: Piscis, the bladder arises from the intersection of two circles (the two-dimensional plane) or two spheres (in three dimensional space). Therefore, it also marks and visually represents the meeting and interpenetration of two worlds or dimensions of being. It is the core unit predates the separation of opposites (yin and yang), or their reunification. Therefore represents a synthesis, abandonment or to overcome any dualism. So if Christ or combined with other figures of the ancient messianic cults misteriosofici, the Mystic will Almond paleserà the dual nature (divine and human) meeting. If associated with the vulva will indicate the bridging function between the hidden and manifest, between what is yet to be born and that which has already come to light. The fact that many openings they have the human form, it also confirms a anatomical level function mediator that we have attributed to bladder Piscis, bridge and gateway between the inner and outer sphere. Almond
The Mystic is also a symbol of the steps the relations between the start and conclusion of a solar eclipse, marriage par excellence of the celestial spheres, in which the unification of opposites is exemplified, at least visually, to its highest degree. But, we repeat, the appearance of the almond is linked only dynamic phases of the eclipse: first, if we in fact two separate celestial bodies, two "circles" separate and now eclipses ended do not we see that only a sphere, created by the perfect overlap of Sun and Moon, is in the progressive stages of unification we see that the role of bladder Piscis, which is not a symbol of immobility in either direction (ie in the still existing in the two-tier or monadic), but generally more or less an expression of the long process of unification of the two extremes. It is a metaphor of the work, but also human and cosmic interior, creating the paradox of the union of what seem irreconcilable: light and dark, good and evil, male and female, high and low, spirit and matter, motion and peace ...
